What is art? To some, there’s a simple answer. To others, it may not be complex. Some people have the answer right away and can say it in one sentence and others have written a whole book on it.
To some, that question can be translated as, “What do you consider is art?” “What makes art?” “What’s the definition of art?” “What’s the perspective of art in separate cultures?”
The Dream by Pablo Picasso
Is art simple or complex? If you become creative, would you be considered as an artist?
One definition could possibly be that art is the product of creative imagination and expression formed into something physical or something that other people can observe with at least one of their natural senses. Paintings and drawings is not the only form of art. There is music. Film. Theater. Architecture. There is cooking and food. There is writing. There is even the art of conversation. Art includes many genres, if that’s what you want to call it.

Many art pieces in this world may function as something to make your wall more aesthetically pleasing, but many other works defy the normative beauty. Ever wonder if you could sell your own sh*t as art? You’re not the first one to think about it. Piero Manzoni was an artist who did just that. Most of his art were not dependent on paint, oils, clay, etc. but things that you couldn’t acquire from a regular arts and crafts store. He sold cans of human excrement. Cans of poo. No one ever opened these cans. Each one costs more than a brand new car.
For us, fashion is one of the biggest forms of art. It’s regarded as a visual and kinesthetic form of expression. It goes with photographic art, theater art, and even street art.
